These remind me of the post-1906 earthquake shacks](https://sf.curbed.com/2017/4/18/15333168/sf-quake-shack-houses-camps). Better built attached housing would likely let people live better at a similar, if they could manage to agree on reasonable rules about living just a bit closer.
I did dude! I was poor! That’s the whole point you ignorantly stomped on. They were cheap because they were shitty andi could afford the rent!
You’re here telling poor people to find thicker walls like they can just go to the thick wall thrift store and change their rental apartment? Ridiculous person.
